If you have long hair, chances are you've experienced your hair ties losing their elasticity over time
Well, turns out there might be a way to make them all good again!
A simple hack showing how you can bring your stretched out hair ties back to life has been going viral on the Internet.
All you need is some hot water
Drop your stretched out hair ties in the hot water and voilà! They'll be good as new.
Watch a video of it below:
Some people even tried it on overstretched plastic coil hair ties and it worked just as quickly!
You can watch it below:
We had to test the hack out for ourselves to see if it really worked, and the answer is YES
Even after the hair ties had dried off, they retained the original non-stretched out shape. :O
The elasticity does last for quite a bit after using the hack, although we're not quite sure how long exactly. But it certainly worked to bring the hair ties back to life within seconds!
You can also get similar results with a hair dryer, but this hack is likely a quicker method.
Just be sure to leave your hair ties in the boiling water for only a few seconds though!
